Default Re: Transplant truck chassis

Kurt:
You are correct, in that I just don't think that part is doable. Best I can do is paint the 8 lug wheels red, as that is the factory color on the original Studebaker wheels according to the trim tag.

Oddly, it is the wheels that got us started on this discussion. Someone told Sherri (after I had wrestled all six split rim wheels mounting tires and tubes) that they were nicknamed "widowmakers". If not inflated properly after a tire change those old split rims can fly apart and cause serious bodily injury.

I may have to do some photo shopping.

Anyone know if dual rear wheels from the 90's will fit the standard floating rear on the Chevy?

I may have to track one down and take it with me when I go check out the Chevy truck.
